by Liam May 15,2025

If we had to pick the standout trailer from the recent State of Play, the crown undoubtedly goes to the new installment of the Onimusha series, *Onimusha: Way of the Sword*. This game introduces us to its protagonist, Miyamoto Musashi, portrayed with the striking likeness of the legendary Japanese actor, Toshiro Mifune. The trailer showcases Musashi in action, masterfully slicing through demons that have invaded Kyoto from the depths of hell. What adds a unique flavor to his character is the humorous moments where he attempts to evade these monstrous foes.

The storyline reveals that Musashi, through his unwavering faith, becomes the bearer of the Oni Gauntlet. His mission is to confront the otherworldly creatures that have encroached upon the realm of the living, absorbing their souls to replenish his health and unleash powerful special abilities.

In addition to the excitement around *Onimusha: Way of the Sword*, we were treated to a trailer for the remaster of *Onimusha 2*. The side-by-side comparison of these trailers vividly illustrates the leaps and bounds that graphics have made over the years, showcasing the evolution of visual storytelling in video games.
